Super Bowl

Now if I am blogging on a football game you knowI am out of ideas of what to write about.

I do like football, and especially the Super Bowl.I usually don’t watch it with others though.. Seethere is something about an old gal jumping upand yelling “go, go, go, run you SOB, go (except Idon’t use the ititals) … kind of puts off otherpeople…

But this year was a little different . The Kingwatched as well. He really isn’t a footballfan. He has watched it at the neighborswhen they are making smokies and etc.and Super Bowl Sunday, he usually findssome where to go while I watched.

But this year he really got into watching.and it was a great game. When it comes toSuper Bowl, I don’t care if my team is thereor not. It is nice if they are… but I care if it isa good game. A close game. And this one was.

But I got to tell you that the entertainment sucked.The gal from Glee did a great job, but from there onthe entertainment went down hill. The blonde ChristineWhat ever.. destroy the song. And what the heck waswith the half time show? I am not talking about justthe singing.. it isn’t my generation type of song, butthe showmanship or what ever you want to call itwas horrible.

And then there is the commercials. One almost watchesthose as much as the game.. and this year was surewanting. The Babies were great, as usual. The Bud wasjust ok… and the Doritos was horrible.. it sure hada great eek factor to it.. or EEWH… sucking on anotherguys fingers… smelling someone else’s pants??? Theyneed to fire the guy who came up with that one.
